Taking away my points.

Hi Judy,
You may wish to look up
regulation 26 of the Universal Credit, Personal Independence Payment, Jobseeker’s Allowance and Employment and Support Allowance (Decisions and Appeals) Regulations 2013
I said "new' law, it isn't actually that new but is certainly newer than the previous regulations about Supersessions.

You may wish to know that on Monday I was helping a client at her tribunal. This lady had been in standard rate of DL and Mob since 2017, until this was superseded in February. The assessor decided to award zero points. Very much like in your case, the clients arthritis and mental health problems had apparently totally disappeared if you were to believe the assessor. If course this hadn't happened.
I know it feels daunting, but by methodically going through the assessment, but concentrating on the major errors the tribunal could clearly understand that not only was the assessor wrong, the client actually deserved enhanced rate of both components.
Never give up. You can do this and get you PIP award again.
Good luck.
LL26

Hi Judy

I did one a few weeks ago, I find it easier to write your submission in a word doc first and then copy and paste it on to the form, you can also up load any docs at the end.

I usually give an overview of the clients condition, supported with documentary evidence.

I then go through the report, I write down what the assessor has given for the description and points scored. I then write down what points I believe should have been reported and why, try and fit it with any supported documents. If you agree with the assessors description then say so, work yourself through all the descriptors.

At the end total up the points you believe should have been reported for each component
Daily Living : 15 points
Mobility : 10 points
